the GTP model has the supercharged engine in it
All 1997-and-up GTP's come from the factory with a 3800 supercharged engine. For 1997-2003 it was the 3800 Series II, and 2004-and-up it is the 3800 Series III.
Yes, a 1995 Buick Riviera supercharged 3800 engine can generally be replaced with a 1996 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi supercharged 3800 engine, as both engines are part of the GM 3800 series and share many components. However, it's crucial to consider compatibility of engine management systems, wiring harnesses, and other components, as there may be differences between the two model years. Additionally, modifications may be necessary for a proper fit and function, so thorough research and planning are essential before proceeding with the swap.
This question references General Motors built FWD vehicles with the 3800 Series supercharged engines. Sensors included the O2s in the exhaust manifold and the downstream of the catalytic converter pipe. knock sensors in the block, and the manifold absolute pressure sensors in the intake manifold.
It should so long as both vehicles are each Supercharged 3800's or non-supercharged 3800's and make sure the Grand Prix has a 3.8L (3800 V6) and not a 3.1L V6 (3100)
The 3800 engines with the superchargers require premium gas. Higher octane fuel prevents engine from self ignition of oxygen and gas causing engine misfire.
yes. but its easier said than done.
It is best to fit a suitable supercharger to extend its working life
how many gallon radiator is the 1997 buick riviera
Normally between 500 and 1500 dollars, depending on condition, mileage, etc.
203 The 3800 Series II engine is rated at 205 H.P. The 3800 Series II Supercharged engine is rated at 240 H.P.
The GTP is supercharged and the the GT is just the 3800 engine without a supercharger
